Booking, Theif, …Who Calls so Loud

It’s annoying when people don’t respond at all to an e-mail.  At least have the courtesy to send out a “No, thanks.”

Last night I ran into a girl I haven’t seen since high school.  We get to talking about what we’re doing now and all that catching up stuff.  She tells me that she has applied to become an elementary school art teacher and is finishing up the interview process.  As we were talking a guy must have walked by and dropped his wallet.  I didn’t see this take place but apparently she did because she snatched that wallet up and stuck it into her purse.  Glancing around to make sure that no one was watching she takes the money out of the guy’s wallet, counts it (about $90 bucks), and then tucks it into her purse and walks away.  Weird night.

This song is called Sleep-like by …Who calls so loud.  Ex-members of Funeral Diner.  They play in Baltimore at the Copy Cat on August 26th.  The thing I most like about this band is how they manage to sound so heavy while using the softest distortion.  Their vocalist’s singing style is also on point.

Lyrics:  callous! i awake in this dream state. everyday runs together. i am a hallow shell. colors and lights run together. i don’t feel. my only defense is sleep and the sleep-like. this is beyond mediocrity this is reality. this is beyond apathy this is giving up. what hurts most is discovering all i believed in and fastened myself too are illusions. as the world distracts and decays. the only portion of it i know distracts me and i begin to decay. distract and decay. the smell is overwhelming. there is life off in the landscape. i can see it through the distortion and blur. my legs are now dead weight. ill drag myself there if i have to.
